Ely Cathedral

[ewx]

If you can't adjust your camera to eliminate convergence and don't feel like fiddling around in an editor, the only remaining option is to make it a feature. This is the west tower and the southwest transpet.

The southern aisle, facing west. Getting this lined up was very tricky and took ages; I have several wonky versions of it gracing my trash. There's still some convergence visible on the nearest pillars.

The Victorian ceiling of the nave. Again very fiddly to line up.

The Lady Chapel is a curious mixture of rather battered original building and recent restoration. There seems to some confusion over when it was damaged; the leaflet I got claims 1541, but Wikipedia thinks that most of the damage occurred a century later.

One of the guides told me who this bishop was, but I've forgotten.

It's a lovely building. I liked the contrast of the statue against the rest though, and the banded structure to that particular view. I was right up against the back wall; I'm not sure I'd have go away with being any further forward.
